"The stableboy should've been present the entire night!" The innkeeper looked to be on the verge of tears.

"That is not possible!" the innkeeper cried out. "Our stableboy has been working here for years. I have watched him grow up since his early teenage years and he has never slacked off ever since he started working for us."
